I got my scores back today: 30M, PS/VR/BS 10/9/11. I've been averaging 33-34 11/10/12, and my goal was 34-35. And an M was a terrible surprise. Very disappointed.
I'm thinking about a retake.
The kicker is, I submitted AMCAS on 8/13. Thinking I would get a 33-35, here are the schools I applied to:
Wake Forest
University of Arkansas (in-state)
George Washington
University of Tennessee
Tufts
UNC
Georgetown
BU
Emory
Univ of Alabama
Duke
UVA
Northwestern
Mayo
Univ of Chicago
Vandy
Major: Neuroscience
GPA: 3.83
ECs: very strong (research, clinical volunteering, student body president...)
LORs: seem strong to me. 1 MD, 1 MDPhD, three close professors
I know a lot of these are "reach" schools for me, am I now limited to in-state only (Arkansas), realistically?
Anyone have advice on whether to retake? I used Kaplan online course, some Kaplan exams, and the all AAMC exams. On AAMC 10 and 11 I got 33, 34.
Sorry about the long thread, but I'm disappointed and kind of freaking out.
